Returnal, or what if scary Metroid Prime but roguelite bullet-hell third-person shooter

I would like to take this time to thank myself for complaining about it on the internet, which spurred them to action

So I'm playing this now. Glad I waited until after a suspend feature was added because yeesh, I'd been pissed if I spent $70 on this and had to play a full run in one sitting.

I played this mostly over the holidays and was surprised by just how much I enjoyed it. I mean, it's a roguelike-like, so obviously there were also times when I got super mad at it after dying to something stupid. But the gameplay, controls and story were all superb IMO. Weirdly, playing this game on the DualSense for extended sessions actually hurt my hands in a way that most games don't. Might have been because I was really tense at times, or else it was the variety of force feedback in the triggers, but either way I was feeling it after the final session that I played.
